Rosebank is fast becoming an important economic node, set to become the third largest high-rise business centre in the City after the inner city and Sandton. While filled with a number of office developments, Rosebank is a hub of leisure activity including malls, hotels, restaurants, movie houses, coffee spots, galleries, bars and markets. Combined with growing residential densification, Rosebank has an unparalleled day and night urban vibrancy. The launch of the Gautrain into the heart of the area has resulted in increasing confidence and investment. Of course, the convenience of the Gautrain and the area’s centrality means it’s easier than ever to explore some of our neighbouring suburbs whilst using Rosebank as a home away from home.

USING THE GAUTRAIN The Gautrain (pronounced ‘How-train’) rapid rail service links Joburg, Pretoria and O.R. Tambo International Airport via two lines. To use the Gautrain buy a Swift Card at the station. Load it with a minimum of R30. The Rosebank station opens at 05:10 and closes at 21:20. To get to O.R. Tambo International Airport take the train to Sandton and change to the airport line. The last train to O.R. Tambo leaves Sandton at 21:04, the first at 04:50. Each Gautrain station is served by a Gautrain bus network linking to nearby suburbs (Gautrain buses run on weekdays only). From the Rosebank Gautrain Station catch a bus to Melrose Arch (RB2), Hyde Park (RB4), Killarney (RB5) or Illovo (RB3). The first Gautrain bus leaves Rosebank at 06:21 and the last at 20:01 (the last bus to Killarney is at 18:59) and runs at intervals of 20 minutes to 40 minutes depending on the time of day. To find out how close the next Gautrain bus is, download the Gautrain app which tracks Gautrain bus movements in real time.

TAXIS AND UBER Taxi cabs (or meter taxis) are not to be confused with South African 'taxis', the city's ubiquitous commuter minibuses. Popular ride hailing services include Uber and Bolt. Without a smartphone book a meter-taxi from Zebra Cabs (tel. +27 86 110 5105, zebracabs.co.za).

The Design Assemblage Chap

Lying directly between Joburg’s historic city centre and the newer Sandton business district, and with a Gautrain station on its doorstep, Rosebank is one of the most popular places to be in Joburg whether for business or leisure. Rosebank’s busy pedestrianised shopping precinct, centred around three interconnected malls The Firs, Rosebank Mall and The Zone@Rosebank, hums with a diverse crowd who come to find the latest fashions and enjoy Rosebank’s many restaurants and café society. Meanwhile the skyline is steadily being filled with sparkling new office towers and luxurious high-rise apartments joined by chic nightlife and dining destinations such as Keyes Art Mile (known for its contemporary art galleries) and Park Corner. These attract a young, and fashionable crowd. Rosebank sits amid 'The Parks' area of Joburg, a cluster of pretty tree-filled suburbs each with their own distinct character and all no more than a tenminute drive away. To the west, you'll find Parktown North and Parkhurst, both known for an abundance of restaurants and cafés. Parkhurst's main street 4th Avenue is a particularly popular street for an afternoon stroll, with window shopping and plenty of pavement cafés. To the south lies Parkwood with its Art Gallery Row along Jan Smuts Avenue, the expansive Zoo Lake park, the Johannesburg Zoo and the suburb of Parkview with its delightful village-like high street Tyrone Avenue. To the north along Jan Smuts Avenue is upmarket Hyde Park and along Oxford Road heading towards Sandton Central is Illovo, another popular restaurant area. Heading east of Rosebank is the upmarket suburb of Melrose and the Melrose Arch precinct.

Shop for local souvenirs at Rosebank Sunday Market

SHOPPER'S PARADISE If you love to shop you are spoiled for choice in Rosebank with hundreds of stores stocking everything from global fashion labels to local brands. MARKET SHOPPING The daily Rosebank Art and Craft Market is one of Joburg's biggest African craft markets and the festive Rosebank Sunday Market offers everything from crafts and clothing to antiques, plus plenty of delicious food options. ART DISTRICT Joburg is an art city and Rosebank, with more than 10 independent galleries, is one of its most renowned art districts. Spend time gallery-hopping on Art Gallery Row along Jan Smuts Avenue, from Keyes Art Mile to Wells Avenue and visit one of the many art galleries scattered through the surrounding suburbs such as The Art Room in Parkhurst. FIRST THURSDAY OF THE MONTH The first Thursday of the month is an art-filled evening with gallery openings and exhibition launches along Art Gallery Row. Keyes Art Mile hosts its monthly Keyes Thursdays street party with plenty of art, cocktails and food trucks. Book your tickets online (the first 600 tickets are free!). COCKTAIL HOUR Rosebank is wall-to-wall with great cocktail bars, from swanky hotel rooftops to secret speakeasies where you will need to know the password to enter.

The pavement cafes on Parkhurst's 4th Avenue are always lively on summer evenings

ILLOVO Characterised by its 1960s apartment blocks, Illovo is also a restaurant district with a dozen or so popular restaurants and bistros scattered along Oxford Road, clustered around the corners of Corlett Drive and Chaplin Road. MELROSE ARCH This modern mixed-use designer lifestyle precinct is arranged around sunny piazzas linked by a network of semi-pedestrianised streets and is bursting with cafés, restaurants, bars, upmarket hotels and designer fashion stores. PARKHURST Coffee shops, cafés, fashion boutiques, restaurants and interior design stores fill the pavements of Parkhurst’s fashionable 4th Avenue. The perfect place to sit on a terrace with an afternoon cappuccino and watch the suburb’s well-dressed residents and their dogs stroll by. PARKVIEW Parkview’s tree-lined Tyrone Avenue, between Roscommon and Ennis Streets, has the ambience of a modest village with a collection of friendly neighbourhood cafés and gift shops that spill out onto the pavement. PARKWOOD Around ten minutes walk from central Rosebank, Park Corner is a trendy dining and nightlife strip that straddles the corner of Jan Smuts Avenue and Bolton Road in Parkwood, particularly lively on Friday and Saturday nights.
